Might be a silly question but one that concerns this grandmother. My son just got a puppy. My son also has a baby who just started crawling and putting everything in his mouth. Should we be cleaning the puppy's bottom and paws before he comes into
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! That is actually an excellent and very smart question and brings up a good point. Dogs can bring soil, bacteria and parasites from the outside so cleaning his paws at least would be a great idea to prevent any harm to the baby. Have a good night!

My Maltese is completely trained to do his necessities indoors in a pad. I travel during summer and my father takes care of him in our house (so his routine doesn’t change). Even so, a few weeks after I’m gone he starts to pee outside the pad. Once I
Since the behavior only occurs when you are away and resolves when you get back, I wonder if it is stress related. There are a number of options to decrease stress. You could consider an Adaptil diffuser which would work for a month ( https://www.adaptil.com/us/Products/ADAPTIL-Calm-Home-Diffuser ). I have also had luck with Rescue Remedy ( http://www.bachflower.com/rescue-remedy-pet/ ) which can be added to the water. There are also a number of calming collars and oral supplements that you could try as well. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/category/dog/dog-health-and-wellness/dog-calming-aids Good luck! I hope that was helpful and gives you some ideas. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. If the puppy pads do not work, I would recommend a product called Fresh Patch, which you can order online. I have found that potty training is much more successful with this product. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

How do I potty train my dog ?
I have had amazing success using a product called Fresh Patch. You can order this online easily. This product has its own website and it is delivered to your address via autoship every couple of weeks. It is basically a patch of grass in a box with an absorbent pad underneath. The clients of mine that have used this have said the puppy automatically began using the patch and others had to physically pick up the puppy and put it on the patch several times before the puppy is trained. I would give this a try and see if this works for you. Taking your puppy out on a regular basis and praising will also help reinforce good bathroom habits. I hope this helps!

I have a white German Shepherd puppy 6 moths old and it will not stop going pee and poop in her crate. She can be outside for over an hour and when she comes right in she does it. We feed her in her cage, have bedding in there, and her cage is not ov
It seems she might need a small kennel. There should only be enough room for her to stand up and turn a complete circle. Any other room then they tend to soil in one area and lay in another so they do not get dirty. Puppies tend to get distracted easily and may find playing and exploring outside more important than going to the bathroom. I would start taking her out on leash and staying close by you reward her with treats as she goes in the correct place.
